Ex-Wife
Kills
Former
FBI
Agent

PENSACOLA,
Fla.
(AP)
-
In
the
middle
of
a
gunbattle
with
deputies
trying
to
arrest
them,
an
ex-stripper
killed
her
former
husband,
a
onetime
FBI
agent,
with
a
shot
to
the
head.
She
then
killed
herself.

``No
one
had
any
idea
they
were
going
to
turn
into
Bonnie
and
Clyde
on
us,''
said
Carlos
Baixauli,
an
agent
of
the
federal
Bureau
of
Alcohol,
Tobacco
and
Firearms.

Former
agent
Justin
Haberski,
40,
who
had
become
a
lawyer
and
part
owner
of
a
strip
club,
and
ex-wife
Jennifer
Bradberry
Haberski,
29,
were
shot
to
death
Friday
as
they
ran
from
their
car
during
the
shootout
with
Escambia
County
deputies.

On
Monday,
medical
examiner
Gary
Cumberland
said
autopsies
showed
that
Ms.
Haberski
shot
her
husband
in
the
forehead,
then
shot
herself.
She
was
also
shot
twice
in
the
chest
by
deputies,
Cumberland
said.
Those
wounds
would
have
eventually
killed
her
if
she
had
not
shot
herself
in
the
head
first,
he
said.

Deputies
had
started
pursuing
the
couple
Friday
after
a
report
that
they
had
robbed
three
men
and
a
woman
walking
from
a
restaurant
to
their
motel.
Pensacola
fire
marshal
Bob
Lane
said
the
suspects
also
were
wanted
for
questioning
in
a
fire
that
caused
an
estimated
$200,000
damage
Wednesday
to
the
Club
Mardi
Gras,
partly
owned
by
Haberski.

During
a
car
chase,
Ms.
Haberski
stood
in
the
sunroof
of
their
Jaguar
and
fired
at
officers
with
a
9
mm
semiautomatic
pistol.
One
officer
fired
back,
Sheriff's
Sgt.
Eddie
Barnard
said.

The
couple
stopped,
apparently
because
of
a
flat
tire,
about
100
feet
from
a
fast-food
restaurant.
Customers
in
the
restaurant
ducked
for
cover
but
none
were
hurt.

``We
locked
the
doors
and
got
everyone
down
on
the
floor,''
said
Scott
Ettinger,
the
restaurant's
associate
manager.

``We
heard
shots
immediately
...
probably
six
to
eight
shots.
It
was
wild,''
said
Mike
Smith,
19,
who
had
left
the
restaurant
before
the
doors
were
locked.

Ms.
Haberski
continued
shooting
as
the
couple
ran
away
and
officers
returned
fire,
deputies
said.

Both
had
previous
run-ins
with
the
law.
He
had
an
outstanding
warrant
for
dealing
in
stolen
property.
She
had
a
warrant
on
charges
of
marijuana
and
drug
paraphernalia
possession
and
failure
to
appear
in
court,
plus
convictions
for
disorderly
conduct,
battery,
disorderly
intoxication,
driving
with
a
suspended
license
and
resisting
arrest
without
violence.

The
couple
divorced
in
October
after
being
married
less
than
a
year.

FBI
Special
Agent
Bill
Cheek
said
Haberski
worked
for
the
agency
from
1984
to
1990.
Why
he
left
the
agency
was
not
disclosed.

The
Florida
Bar
received
complaints
from
several
of
Haberski's
clients
as
well
as
judges
in
recent
months
and
was
preparing
to
ask
the
Florida
Supreme
Court
to
suspend
his
law
license,
a
spokeswoman
said.
